apparently apollo 17 broke all the records, it was the longest mission and they brought back the most lunar samples and longest time in lunar orbit and simply amazing mission and so, you know, in early december here in 2012 to celebrate 40 years, it makes me really proud of what i do today. >> and you are still doing it. you're very, very involved with the program, and is the glass half full or half empty, as far as the future of space exploration? >> well, i'm a glass, a glassful kind of person, and i think that is the kind of people that we have in the space program. some look back at the times and they think, well, they did so much then and our steps are slower, shorter or more frustrating now. part of that's true. it's a different time, a different political arena and it was a political race, and if you needed it for apollo, then you got it. that's not our environment, but the environment that we're in right now, we have to balance the needs of everybody, we have to spend our money in the places it really needs to be spent and balance that and so the steps that we take are sort of

>> well, for the future i've always felt that apollo 17 was not the end but truly the beginning of a whole new era in the history of mankind. we sort of knocked the door open and left it open for future generations to walk through. they, indeed, will do that if we inspire them like we were inspired to reach out a little bit further than man has reached before. i can't really answer your question as to entirely what it means to future generations. we've got to figure that out as time goes on. i left, when i left the moon i left somewhat unsatisfied. i didn't have an answer. i knew i had been where no human being had been before. what i had seen in the valley and lived in and called my home had never been seen by human eyes in history of mankind. people ask me how long will those steps be there. how long will the flag be there? how long will my daughter's initials i put in the soil of the moon? my answer is, forever, however long it is. that is something we don't understand. i'm just hoping we give future generations the same opportunity and give them the shoulders that we stood upon,
